Labels licenses

Under the patent misuse doctrine, courts have put restrictions on the methods of issuing label licenses. The courts have generally held that a patent holder may not license others to use its unpatented products in the patented manner, while refusing to license its patent to parties that purchase the unpatented goods from its competitors. Moreover, patentees have been found to have misused patents by charging higher royalty rates to licensees who use the unpatented products of competitors than to purchasers of their own products. See, e.g., BJB. Chemical Co. v. Ellis, supra Ansul Co. v. Uniroyal Inc., 448 F.2d 872 (2nd Cir. 1971), cert, denied, 404 U.S. 1018 (1972).

An eco-label license is t5q>ically valid for prescribed period, normally 3 years because it is anticipated that product environmental requirements will gradually increase. Companies must then reapply and an assessment must be conducted to determine if product(s) conforms to the new standards or requirements. If not, the license is withdrawn, thereby ensuring that companies pace with technological progress in providing increasingly environmentally friendly products [9]. 

The Federal Trade Commission has aimounced a rule, effective November 30, 1995, that sets test procedures and labeling standards for recycled oil used as engine lubricating oil (35). The test procedures used are those contained in the Engine Oil Licensing and Certification System of the American Petroleum Institute (API) (36). The rule states in effect that if recycled oils meet the requirements of the API Certification System, such oils ate substantially equivalent to new oil for use as engine oil. This federal rule preempts certain state recycled oil rules (35).

When used in products not licensed for drinking, ethanol usually occurs in the form of denatured alcohol, or specially denatured alcohol—alcohol that has been rendered unfit for drinking. You will often see SD alcohol mentioned on a label, sometimes followed by a number and letter, such as 40-B. This is the designation given by the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms to the denaturing method used. For example, SD-40 is ethanol denatured by adding tiny amounts of the most bitter-tasting substance known denatonium benzoate.

The decentralised procedure can be used in cases where the product has never been authorised in any of the Member States, and the applicant wishes to obtain a license in a number of states simultaneously. The applicant must submit applications with the complete dossier to the Competent Authorities of each of the Member States where authorisation is desired. A single Member State should be chosen as the reference state to undertake the scientific assessment ofthe complete dossier, while the other states are designated as concerned states. The review process has many parallels vhth the centralised procedure, in that similar time lines exist, the reference State plays the role ofthe rapporteur, and the concerned States replace the CHMP. Once all States have validated that the dossiers are complete, the reference State is allowed 70 days to review the dossier and prepare a preliminary assessment report, which is circulated to the concerned Member States and the applicant. Comments from the concerned Member States and applicant responses are collected so that by day 120 the reference State may issue a draft assessment report together vhth draft SPC, label and leaflet texts. The clock may be stopped until requested responses from the applicant are received. The application then enters the second step in the assessment process, during which all the concerned Member States consider the...
